"Is he family?" Question came from family but divide my age in half and subtract a few for the one who asked. My answer "I don't know." Today I think maybe. [Why do I have conversations like with guys in the mid to late 20s and don't have them with the 40s guys (friends lists are exceptions)?]

Nice tight jean bulge sighting on the bus on the way home.

Unfortunately, the cop was mediocre.

In spite of the weather, the day was extremely warm. Started out with talk on the news about long underwear and later talk at work about ski masks (I have one of those somewhere, but I'm more likely to find a spandex, latex, or rubber one if I went looking). Then there was a hot looking daddy-type (probably younger than me, but who's counting the years) in cowboy boots and cowboy hat (straw -- felt, black, would have been my choice) and another pair of cowboy boots at work. Carhartt Arctic flannel-lined coveralls. Not to mention Chris Cagle photos from the Yahoo group "hotcowboys."

Monday: Really Cold but Fairly Sunny

Carolina loggers, brown cords, maroon with cream/tan plaid flannel shirt, black Carhartt thermal top & bottom, black pouch briefs, usual Dickies socks.

So nice to see so many men in ill-fitting pants (bet you're wearing long underwear, too!).

My Blog is two years old today (and I'm now in, gasp, my "late 50s"). I'm going to drop the WordPress version. I'm not going to worry if it takes me several days to update the Blogger/Blogspot version. No other changes foreseen.

This year, the poetry is better than last year's.

It's my life and it's sure fun
Another season of my life's begun
Another race I'm glad I get to run
Another chapter of my life I'm writin’
No I'm never gonna feel like this again
Time's rushin’ by me like the wind
Gotta grab each moment that I can
Cause I'm never gonna feel like this again

--Philip Coleman/Paul Overstreet (as sung by Kenny Chesney)

Sunday: Chilly & Sunny

Black Nocona elephant and deerhide cowboy boots, black Wrangler jeans, black Wrangler shirt, navy light weight thermal T, another new pair of black briefs, usual Dickies socks. It was cold, but I wasn't out of the house or car much.

Passed a car pulled over by a MSP officer. He was not wearing a jacket (see, I do look above the boots). "Brr!," said I. "He looked like he had plenty of personal insulation," said better half.
